No UDP support cytron wifi shield? #4

Open Joshydewitte opened 2 years ago

Joshydewitte commented 2 years ago

I had ntp time working on a ethernet shield because there is alot of support and information about that shield. However when I try to do the same for the wifi shield I notice that other shields import a library to use the UDP port and I haven't seen that for the cytron wifi shield.

Now I don't have the full knowledge of internet connections, libraries and programming but if you could help me out in any way I'd appreciate it, so my questions are: Is there a way this shield supports incomming udp connections? Or is there another way to achieve the same result.

Thanks in advance.

Hi, Please try this code. This library is compatible. https://github.com/bportaluri/WiFiEsp/blob/master/examples/UdpNTPClient/UdpNTPClient.ino   Thanks.   Best regards, ZAMZURI Cytron Technologies Sdn Bhd 1, Lorong Industri Impian 1, Taman Industri Impian, 14000 Bukit Mertajam Penang.

Thanks for your fast response. Unfortunatly the arduino with Cytron's Wifi Shield crashes as soon as the program reaches Udp.begin(localPort);. The program I test with is a slightly editted version of the udpNTPclient example from https://github.com/bportaluri/WiFiEsp/blob/master/examples/UdpNTPClient/UdpNTPClient.ino
I tinkered a little with the code so I know it connected to my wifi. After that it does the Udp.begin but immediatly restarts connecting.

Is this the still the library I need to try?
